When we better understand the workings of our brains, we gain greater control over our lives, our futures, and our happiness.
Dr. David L. Raffle performs evidence-based, scientifically validated neuropsychological and psychoeducational assessments for a wide range of patients. The assessments focus on medical, family, and social factors, each contributing to one's psychological and functional strengths and challenges. The goal of assessments is to provide practical and individualized treatment plans to help those with significant challenges achieve happier and more productive lives.
Dr. Raffle also provides cognitive-based, client-centered psychotherapy. In a caring, protective and accepting atmosphere, individuals feel empowered to explore their own pathways toward self-discovery, positive personal growth, and self-healing. Therapy works because it creates resiliency – the mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility to successfully adjust to and cope with life's challenges and adversities.
